Memorial piece for a lost sibling, half healed half fresh. Hardest part about this was getting the owl to stay still long enough to tattoo, but like anything bribe them with candy and broken promises. #art #ink #tattoo #owl #clock #butterfly #armtattoo #chickswithtattoos #owltattoo #memorialtattoo #clocktattoo #cheyenne #eternalink #worldfamousink #silverbackink #nickhilltattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #petafuckoffiknowwhatimdoing #calgarytattoo #blackandgreytattoo #realisim #realisimtattoo #naturetattoo (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

This piece came together with the combined efforts of my clients vision and her stubbornness of not letting me put the twilight vampire twinkling in the moonlight behind. Looking at it now I think she was right. #art #tattoo #ink #watercolor #watercolortattoo #rose #wolf #northernlights #moon #realistictattoo #realisim #prettysurethatsjakefromtwilighthowling #ishisnamejake #itsjakenow #cheyenne #worldfamousink #eternalink #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #instalike #instapic #girltattoo #inkedgirls #thightattoo #beautiful #pretty #calgarytattoo (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

Had the pleasure of doing a fun job stopper on the wonderfully talented @amy_bishop_music from the show @thelaunchctv crazy vocals and a good sense of humour just a gem of a lady. But remember Amy I do the jokes around here. Next time I’ll display my singing range with the song free Bird by Lynyrd skynyrd using only hums and nasal sounds. #art #tattoo #ink #jobstopper #handtattoo #mictattoo #watercolortattoo #musictattoo #cheyenne #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #worldfamousinks #inktattoo (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

I’ve been behind in posting some work so I was planning on flooding your feeds by posting something every hour like some terrorist asking for demands before he kills a hostage. But that’s a lot of work and my secretary is only 8 yr old and has school, I know it’s not an excuse, trust me no dinner will be served tonight. #art #tattoo #ink #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #feather #palindrome #chicktattoo #girltattoo #girlytattoo #fashion #bridge #bridgingthegap #spider #blackwidow #friendtattoo #friendshiptattoo #instalike #calgarytattoo #yycartist #canadianartist (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

Finished up this panda at the Edmonton convention today. Entered it into the trad/neo trad contest as well but didn’t win, didn’t wear enough lucky objects today. I’ll enter the next contest in Calgary so one day my parents will be proud and not think I’m the failure they all said I would be when I was 7. I’m not a failure mom I just don’t know how to program the vcr. #tattoo #ink #art #redpanda #newschooltattoo #neotraditionaltattoo #cowboyredpanda #fingerguns #pewpew #shinybeltbuckle #illgetyounexttimegadget #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #edmontontattoo #edmontontattooshow #edmontontattooconvention @edmontontattooshow #cheyenne #eternalink (at Edmonton EXPO Centre)

Me and @dinyero heading over to tattoo the fine people of Edmonton. Clear sky’s, birds chirping and dead animals on the highways of Alberta. It’s a sight to be seen. Come say hi to us or don’t but we are gracing Edmonton with our presence so it’s like the second coming of Jesus or something. #tattoo #convention #edmonton #edmontontattooshow #blackbeatles #weareinyourcity #oilerssuckstill

Sun and moon gods, protectors of love or time or something... I think or maybe just signals to start your day at your sweat shop and when you should leave, except my kids I make sure they are working day and night. Nike’s ain’t cheap ya kno, Anyways I left you with a small sketch of the sun mooning you as a hello. #tattoo #ink #art #silverbackinks #blackandgreytattoo #newschooltattoo #neotraditionaltattoo #sungod #moongod #sunmooning #cheyenne #nickhilltattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #gods #god #calgarytattoo @skinandinkmag @tattoolifemagazine #instagood #instapic (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

Jack skeleton was exactly what I inspired to be growing up, tall, creative and a head to big for his body. #art #ink #tattoo #disney #newschooltattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #nightmarebeforechristmas #cheyenne #worldfamousink #cartoontattoo #zero #jackskellington #jackskellingtontattoo #timburton #calftattoo #colortattoo @world_of_newschool @skinandinkmag @tattoolifemagazine #disneytattoo #customtattoo (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

I like those images where when you look upside down you see a totally different image...... upside down these still look like tiger Lily’s so much still to learn. #art #tattoo #ink #tigerlily #flowers #script #quote #tigerlilytattoo #flowertattoo #girltattoo #girlytattoo #inkedgirls #instagood #instapic #fashion #like4like #calgarytattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #cheyenne #armtattoo #eternalink #worldfamousink (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

This maybe the same old song and dance but I don’t want to miss a thing and dream on. But Janie’s got a gun because she’s jaded which is crazy all I did was make love in an elevator and now she has me living on the edge. @iamstevent #ink #tattoo #nickhilltattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #cheyenne #eternalink #worldfamousink #forearmtattoo #microphone #microphonetattoo #steventyler #aerosmith #aerosmithtattoo #steventylermicrophone #colortattoo #scarf #instagood #instalike #fashion #willthesehashtagseverwork (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

I did this memorial piece while hopped up on red bull in hopes of giving me wings like these. Instead I got my hopes up and a trip to the hospital after jumping off my roof. #art #tattoo #ink #nickhilltattoo @obsidianrosetattoo #cheyenne #worldfamousink #eternalink #memorialtattoo #memorial #wing #initial #sunrise #instalike #instapic #instagood #calgarytattoo #canadianartist #ankletattoo #redbulldoesnotgivewings (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

Normally I joke when I post pictures because I enjoy humour. But this tattoo was done in memorial for a lost child and that hits the heart strings. Recovery is always a long road but keep your head up and accept the love from others to help heal. I was very honoured to do this for Shelby (just a few beads around the arm left to complete) #art #ink #tattoo #nickhilltattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #memorialtattoo #footprints #footprinttattoo #rosary #rosarytattoo #quote #quotetattoo #blackandgreytattoo #calgarytattoo #canadianartist #instagood #instapic (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

What do you mean you haven’t seen a deer head with Phoenix feathers, poison tipped antler, broken antler, dream catcher, shark tooth, spider web, rope and a nose ring before?

A start to this coverup/half sleeve. I wanted to use a real skull for reference but apparently it’s frowned upon digging up people in the cemetery. #art #ink #tattoo #skull #skulltatttoo #blackandgreytattoo #blackandwhite #inkedgirls #chickswithtattoos #halfsleeve #inprogress #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #cheyenne #fashion #instagood #instalike #instapic @tattoolifemagazine @inkedmag (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)

I wore an astronaut helmet the entire time I did this tattoo, and moved like there was no atmosphere.... this tattoo took 2 years to make. #art #tattoo #ink #apprentice #space #spacetattoo #universe #star #creation #calgarytattoo #obsidianrosetattoo #nickhilltattoo #damnitjimimatattooistnotashrink #thightattoo #girltattoo #inkedgirls #cheyenne #worldfamousink #eternalink @inkedmag @tattoolifemagazine (at Obsidian Rose Tattoo)
